The material is frequently compromised by exposure to organic semiconductor solutions and other fabrication processes utilized in the production of organic ferroelectric transistors. In this study, an organic ferroelectric field effect transistor(OFeFET) with the 6,13-Bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene(TIPS-pentacene) channel is fabricated, in which the aluminum oxide(Al_(2)O_(3)) interlayer is used to improve compatibility. The device displays polymorphic memory and synaptic plasticity of long-term potentiation and depression. Furthermore, an artificial neural network constructed using our devices is simulated to succeed in recognizing the MNIST handwritten digit database with a high accuracy of 92.8%. This research offers a viable approach to enhance the compatibility of the organic ferroelectric polymer P(VDF-TrFE) with organic semiconductors.展开更多

However, challenges such as limited charge mobility in organic bulk heterojunction(BHJ) layers, and energy-level mismatch at the perovskite/BHJ interface still sustain. Recent advancements in non-fullerene acceptors(NFAs), interfacial engineering, and emerging materials have improved charge transfer/transport, and overall power conversion efficiency(PCE) of IPOSCs.This review explores key developments in IPOSCs, focusing on low-bandgap materials for near-infrared absorption, energy alignment optimization, and strategies to enhance photocurrent density and device performance. Future innovations in material selection and device architecture will be crucial for further improving the efficiency of IPOSCs, bringing them closer to practical application in next-generation photovoltaic technologies.展开更多

文摘Along with decrease of fine particulate matter(PM_(2.5))concentration in recent years in China,secondary species become increasingly important.This work focuses on characterizing secondary components,and a few important groups of organics including organic nitrogen(ON),organonitrates(OrgN),organosulfates(OS)and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs),via online measurement of submicron aerosols(PM_(1))in Nanjing,China,during 2022 summer.The average PM_(1) concentration was 15.39μg/m^(3),dominated by secondary components(69.1%),which were even more important at higher PM_(1) levels.The primary organic aerosols(POA)were from traffic,industry and cooking;the two secondary OA factors were both closely linked with photochemistry,with one(OOA1)being relatively fresh and important in early afternoon and another(OOA2)being aged and important in late afternoon.Sulfate formation was also governed by photochemistry but resembled that of OOA2 not OOA1;nitrate formation was associated strongly with heterogeneous hydrolysis and thermodynamic equilibrium.Results also reveal a possible photochemical reaction channel from POA to OOA1,then to OOA2.Case studies show that formations of secondary components responded differently to different weather conditions and governed summer PM_(1) pollution.The average ON,OrgN,OS and PAHs concentrations were determined to be 122.8,84.4,45.6 and 3.3 ng/m^(3),respectively.ON was dominated by primary sources(53.8%).OrgN varied similarly to nitrate.OS formation was linked with aqueous-phase reactions,which were insignificant therefore its level was low.PAHs was mainly from traffic,and photochemical oxidation might be its important sink during afternoon.

文摘Temperature has a substantial impact on the emission of biogenic volatile organic compounds(BVOCs).Moder-ate warm temperatures,e.g.,30–40°C,could boost plant metabolism,increasing BVOC emissions.Against the backdrop of global warming,plants emit more BVOCs to cope with thermal stress,leading to elevated concen-trations of tropospheric ozone(O_(3))and secondary organic aerosols(SOA).In recent years,a considerable body of research has explored the interaction between tree species and BVOCs under the influence of various environ-mental factors.Although many studies have examined explored the temperature dependence of BVOC emissions in the past,few studies have conducted a comprehensive and in-depth investigation into the impacts of tempera-ture.This review summarizes the relevant studies on BVOCs in the past decade,including the main biosynthetic pathways,emission observation techniques and emission inventories,as well as how temperature affects isoprene and monoterpene emission rates and the formation of O_(3) and SOA.Our work offers a theoretical foundation and guidance for future efforts to advance the comprehension of BVOC emission characteristics and develop strategies to mitigate secondary pollution.

文摘Organic photovoltaics(OPVs)have achieved remarkable progress,with laboratory-scale single-junction devices now demonstrating power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)exceeding 20%.However,these efficiencies are highly dependent on the thickness of the photoactive layer,which is typically around 100 nm.This sensitivity poses a challenge for industrial-scale fabrication.Achieving high PCEs in thick-film OPVs is therefore essential.This review systematically examines recent advancements in thick-film OPVs,focusing on the fundamental mechanisms that lead to efficiency loss and strategies to enhance performance.We provide a comprehensive analysis spanning the complete photovoltaic process chain:from initial exciton generation and diffusion dynamics,through dissociation mechanisms,to subsequent charge-carrier transport,balance optimization,and final collection efficiency.Particular emphasis is placed on cutting-edge solutions in molecular engineering and device architecture optimization.By synthesizing these interdisciplinary approaches and investigating the potential contributions in stability,cost,and machine learning aspects,this work establishes comprehensive guidelines for designing high-performance OPVs devices with minimal thickness dependence,ultimately aiming to bridge the gap between laboratory achievements and industrial manufacturing requirements.

文摘A trace analytical method based on solid-phase extraction gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(SPE–GC–MS/MS)was developed for the rapid detection of 256 semi-volatile organic compounds(SVOCs),including 25 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs),70 polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs),123 pesticides,20 phthalate esters(PAEs),4 organophosphate esters(OPEs),9 synthetic musks(SMs),and 5 UV filters(UVs)in water.No-tably,this method provided a decent linearity of calibration standards(R^(2)>0.999),excellent method limits of quantification(MLOQs)(0.12–11.41 ng/L),satisfactory matrix spiking recovery rates(60.4%–126%),and high precision(intra-day relative standard deviations(RSDs):1.0%–10.0%,inter-day RSDs:3.0%–15.0%,and inter-week RSDs:3.4%–15.7%),making it suitable for trace-level studies.Statistical analysis revealed that SVOCs with higher volatility exhibited enhanced recovery rates.Validation of the methodology involved analyzing SVOCs in real spring water and river water samples.Twenty-seven SVOCs were detected in spring water and 58 in river water,with an average concentration of 631.73 and 16,095 ng/L,respectively.Among the detected SVOCs,PAEs constituted the predominant proportion.This study underscored the presence of SVOCs contamination specifi-cally within the spring water,although SVOCs concentrations in river water were significantly greater than those found in spring water.In summary,this sensitive method based on SPE–GC–MS/MS was successfully developed and validated for the rapid analysis of a diverse array of 256 SVOCs at trace levels in water,including not only the traditional highly valued PAHs,PCBs,pesticides,and PAEs,but also the emerging OPEs,UVs,and SMs.

文摘A nonfused ring electron acceptor(NFREA),designated as TT-Ph-C6,has been synthesized with the aim of enhancing the power conversion efficiency(PCE)of organic solar cells(OSCs).By integrating asymmetric phenylalkylamino side groups,TT-Ph-C6 demonstrates excellent solubility and its crystal structure exhibits compact packing structures with a three-dimensional molecular stacking network.These structural attributes markedly promote exciton diffusion and charge carrier mobility,particularly advantageous for the fabrication of thick-film devices.TT-Ph-C6-based devices have attained a PCE of 18.01%at a film thickness of 100 nm,and even at a film thickness of 300 nm,the PCE remains at 14.64%,surpassing that of devices based on 2BTh-2F.These remarkable properties position TT-Ph-C6 as a highly promising NFREA material for boosting the efficiency of OSCs.

文摘Carbonyl compounds play a pivotal role in the formation of secondary pollutants such as O_(3) and SOA,signifi-cantly impacting air quality and human health.This study extended the observation period compared to previous research,providing a long-term perspective on carbonyl compound variations and their environmental implica-tions.Atmospheric observations were conducted at Beijing(BJ)and Xianghe(XH)during the summer and winter months of 2018,2019,and 2023 to study the sources and impacts of carbonyl compounds in typical urban areas and peri‑urban areas.Notably,concentrations in the summer of 2023 increased compared to 2018 and 2019.The predominant carbonyl compounds—formaldehyde,acetaldehyde,and acetone—accounted for over 60%of the total.The mean values of OFP in BJ ranged from 18.55 to 58.61μg/m3,lower than those in XH(29.82 to 65.48μg/m3),with formaldehyde and acetaldehyde contributing over 80%of the total.SOAP exhibited a similar pattern,with values in XH(69.21 to 508.55μg/m3)significantly exceeding those in BJ(34.47 to 159.78μg/m3).The PMF model highlighted vehicle exhaust,secondary pollution,and biomass combustion as major sources of carbonyl compounds,emphasizing differences in source contributions between the two regions.This study’s com-parative analysis over different years and locations provides new insights into the dynamic changes in carbonyl compounds and their environmental importance.These results not only reinforce the importance of carbonyl compounds regulation but also offer a valuable reference for evaluating and refining emission control strategies during this period.

文摘Fenton-like technology based on peroxymonosulfate activation has shown great potential in refractory organics degradation.In this work,single Fe atom catalysts were synthesized through facile ball milling and exhibited very high performance in peroxymonosulfate activation.The Fe single-atom filled an N vacancy on the triazine ring edge of C_(3)N_(4),as confirmed through X-ray absorption fine structure,density functional calculation and elec-tron paramagnetic resonance.The SAFe_(0.4)–C_(3)N_(4)/PMS system could completely remove phenol(20 mg/L)within 10 min and its first-order kinetic constant was 12.3 times that of the Fe_(3)O_(4)/PMS system.Under different ini-tial pH levels and in various anionic environments,SAFe_(0.4)–C_(3)N_(4) still demonstrated excellent catalytic activity,achieving a removal rate of over 90%for phenol within 12 min.In addition,SAFe_(0.4)–C_(3)N_(4) exhibited outstanding selectivity in reaction systems with different pollutants,showing excellent degradation effects on electron-rich pollutants only.Hydroxyl radicals(•OH),singlet oxygen(1O_(2))and high-valent iron oxide(Fe(Ⅳ)=O)were de-tected in the SAFe_(0.4)–C_(3)N_(4)/PMS system through free radical capture experiments.Further experiments on the quenching of active species and a methyl phenyl sulfoxide probe confirmed that 1O_(2) and Fe(Ⅳ)=O played dom-inant roles.Additionally,the change in the current response after adding PMS and phenol in succession proved that a direct electron transfer path between organic matter and the catalyst surface was unlikely to exist in the SAFe_(0.4)–C_(3)N_(4)/PMS/Phenol degradation system.This study provides a new demonstration of the catalytic mech-anism of single-atom catalysts.

文摘Poly(vinylidene-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] copolymer films generally demonstrate limited compatibility with organic semiconductors. The material is frequently compromised by exposure to organic semiconductor solutions and other fabrication processes utilized in the production of organic ferroelectric transistors. In this study, an organic ferroelectric field effect transistor(OFeFET) with the 6,13-Bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene(TIPS-pentacene) channel is fabricated, in which the aluminum oxide(Al_(2)O_(3)) interlayer is used to improve compatibility. The device displays polymorphic memory and synaptic plasticity of long-term potentiation and depression. Furthermore, an artificial neural network constructed using our devices is simulated to succeed in recognizing the MNIST handwritten digit database with a high accuracy of 92.8%. This research offers a viable approach to enhance the compatibility of the organic ferroelectric polymer P(VDF-TrFE) with organic semiconductors.

文摘Lower Paleozoic black shales are important source rocks worldwide.The Upper Ordovician-Lower Silurian Renheqiao Formation of the Baoshan Block is a low-maturity equivalent of the Wufeng-Longmaxi(WF-LMX)Shale of the Sichuan Basin.However,organic matter(OM)characteristics in these low-maturity Lower Paleozoic shales are not well understood.In this study,50 Renheqiao Formation shale samples collected from seven outcrop sections and one drill core were investigated with organic petrology,organic geochemistry,R_(o)ck-Eval pyrolysis,N_(2) and CO_(2) adsorption,and scanning electron microscope(SEM)analyses to study the OM content,type,thermal maturity,and the development of OM-hosted pores in these Lower Paleozoic shales.The total organic carbon(TOC)content of the Renheqiao Formation shales varies,with the maximum content of 10.07 wt%.R_(o)ck-Eval pyrolysis results show that present OM in the Renheqiao Formation shales is Type IV kerogen,a result of advanced thermal maturation.Graptolite reflectance(GR_(o))ranges from 1.26%to 1.85%,and equivalent vitrinite reflectance(EqR_(o))converted from GR_(o) ranges from 1.08%to 1.51%,indicating that the studied Renheqiao Formation shales are dominantly within the late-mature stage.EqR_(o) based on R_(o)ck-Eval T_(max) shows large variations,which indicates that R_(o)ck-Eval T_(max) is not a reliable thermal maturity indicator for the Lower Paleozoic Renheqiao Formation shales.Caution should be applied when assessing the thermal maturity of high-maturity black shales based on T_(max) when the S2 values are too low.Organic petrographic observations show that OM in these shales is dominated by solid bitumen(>70 vol%of total OM),with minor contributions by graptolites and chitinozoans.The specific surface area and pore volume of shales are controlled by TOC content.Organic pores are hosted by solid bitumen and were not observed in graptolites when examined under the SEM.Although the Renheqiao Formation has a lower thermal maturity than the over-mature WF-LMX Shale,it is mature enough that primary oil-prone macerals have been thermally transformed and could not be identified under the microscope.

文摘Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)are two-(2D)or threedimensional(3D)crystalline,porous networks generated by reversible polymerization of organic building blocks[1,2].The structures and functionalities of COFs are precisely controlled via appropriately selected organic building blocks.This design imparts unique properties to COFs,including exceptional structural stability,tunable pore structure,and surface chemical activity,making them promising for gas separation,catalysis,optoelectronics,and sensing applications.Since Yaghi et al.'s seminal report on COFs in 2005[2],these frameworks have swiftly emerged as a hotspot in the field of materials.Originally,the focus was on fabricating rigid frameworks with static structures and optoelectronic properties.However,the inherently static nature of these frameworks hinders their responsiveness to external stimuli,potentially constraining their functionality in specific applications.Hence,an increasing number of researchers are now directing their attention toward the development of dynamic COFs capable of modifying their structures in response to external stimuli[3].Specifically,dynamic 2D COFs exhibiting enhanced structural responsiveness are of particular interest due to their capability to integrate switchable geometries and porosities with semiconductor building blocks,as well as electron conjugation across COF layers and π-stacked columns,which may enable stimuli-responsive electronic and spin properties[4].

文摘As a class of crystalline porous materials,metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)have shown unique advantages in the fields of catalysis,gas storage and separation,but their inherent microporous structure(pore diameter<2 nm)severely limits their application in scenarios such as macromolecular mass transfer and so on.In order to overcome this re-striction,mesoporous MOFs(meso-MOFs)with a larger aperture(2-50 nm)have attracted much attention due to their potential applications in biological macromolecular catalysis,energy storage and other fields.To date,how to accurately regulate its mesopore topology and pore ordering still faces important technical challenges.

文摘Exploring secondary organic aerosol(SOA)processes is crucial for understanding climate and air pollution in megacities.This study introduces a new method using positive matrix factorization(PMF)to investigate the SOA process by integrating the OA and associated ions previously misidentified as inorganic aerosol in high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometry data.The mass spectra and time series of primary OA(POA)and less oxidized oxygenated OA(OOA)identified by this new method resembled those resolved by traditional PMF.However,more oxidized OOA(MO-OOA)identified by traditional PMF can be further subdivided into multiple OA factors,including nitrogen-enriched OA(ON-OA)and sulfur-enriched OA(OS-OA)in summer,and ON-OA,OS-OA,and OOA in winter.Our findings highlight the significant role of photochemical processes in the formation of OS-OA compared to ON-OA.The compositions of reconstructed MO-OOA varied under different Ox(=O_(3)+NO_(2))and relative humidity conditions,emphasizing the limitations of using a constant mass spectrum.Aged biomass burning OA(BBOA)and coal combustion OA(CCOA),previously misattributed as POA,contributed 9.2%(0.43μg m^(−3))and 7.0%(0.33μg m^(−3))to SOA,respectively.Aged BBOA was more prone to forming OS-OA,whereas ON-OA showed higher correlations with aged CCOA,indicating distinct molecular compositions of SOA from different aged POA sources.Compared to aged BBOA,aged CCOA was more subject to conversion during aqueous phase processing.These results suggest that the variations in mass spectra and compositions need to be considered when simulating SOA processes.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),assembled periodically by coordinating inorganic metal ions and organic motifs,have arisen widespread curiosity and intensive investigation owing to their tailorable electronic properties and well-defined topological structure.However,the majority of MOFs are intrinsically dielectric or insulative[1]and typically form as 3D bulk or powder crystals,making them incompatible with complementary metal-oxide semiconductor(CMOS)techniques.In recent years,layer-stacked two-dimensional conjugated MOFs(2D c-MOFs),composed of planar conjugated ligands and linkages[2],have demonstrated high in-plane π conjugation and weak out-of-plane van der Waals interactions,due to their long-range electron delocalization over metal ions and ligands[3].As a result,highly tunable band gaps from semiconductor to conductor,modulable porosity from micropore to macropore and versatile processability into conductive 2D thin films with controllable lateral thickness and domain size are presented,rendering charming potential for applications in(opto-)electronics compared with classic 2D metal oxide,chalcogenide and crystalline polymer materials.To improve interfacial charge-transport and precisely tune the charge extraction and band alignment of 2D c-MOFs in(opto-)electronic devices[4],developing highly efficient synthetic methods of 2D c-MOFs is of utmost importance.

文摘Organic electrode materials(OEMs)constitute an attractive class of energy storage materials for potassium-ion batteries,but their application is severely hindered by sluggish kinetics and limited capacities.Herein,inorganic molecules covalent combination strategy is proposed to drive advanced potassium organic batteries.Specifically,molecular selenium,possessing high potential of conductivity and electroactivity,is covalently bonded with organic matrix,that is symmetrical selenophene-annulated dipolyperylene diimide(PDI2-2Se),is designed to verify the feasibility.The inorganic-anchored OEM(PDI2-2Se)can be electrochemically activated to form organic(PDI2 matrix)–inorganic(Se)hybrids during initial cycles.Stateof-the-art 3D tomography reveals that a“mutual-accelerating”effect was realized,that is,the 10-nm Se quantum dots,possessing high conductivity,facilitate charge transfer in organics as well store K^(+)-ions,and organic PDI2 matrix benefits the encapsulation of Se,thereby suppressing shuttle effect and volume fluctuation during cycling,endowing resulting PDI2/Se hybrids with both high-rate capacities and longevity.The concept of inorganicconfigurated OEM through covalent bonds,in principle,can also be extended to design novel functional organic-redox electrodes for other high-performance secondary batteries.

文摘Solar-driven(or light-driven)production of hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))from water(H_(2)O)and molecular oxygen(O_(2))has recently received increasing attention as a green and sustainable alternative to conventional methods.However,the field of photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production is still in its infancy,primarily because of limited H_(2)O_(2)production efficiency.Over the past few years,a wide range of inorganic,organic,and organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts have been developed via diverse synthetic and modification strategies to increase the H_(2)O_(2)yield.Among them,organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts have shown higher H_(2)O_(2)production performance than single-component systems;at the same time,the advancements and challenges of these hybrid systems have not been comprehensively reviewed.Therefore,this review summarizes the advantages/limitations,recent progress,and potential challenges of organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts for H_(2)O_(2)production.First,we elucidate the superiority of the photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production over the conventional anthraquinone oxidation process.Then,we summarize the advantages and limitations of inorganic,organic,and organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts and discuss in detail the design,synthetic strategies,and photochemical properties of organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts.Finally,this review outlines the challenges and outlook for future research in this emerging area.

文摘Both soil organic carbon (SOC) and iron (Fe) oxide content, among other factors, drive the formation and stability of soil aggregates.However, the mechanism of these drivers in greenhouse soil fertilized with organic fertilizer is not well understood.In a 3-year field experiment, we aimed to investigate the factors which drive the stability of soil aggregates in greenhouse soil.To explore the impact of organic fertilizer on soil aggregates, we established four treatments:no fertilization (CK);inorganic fertilizer (CF);organic fertilizer (OF);and combined application of inorganic and organic fertilizers(COF).The application of organic fertilizer significantly enhanced the stability of aggregates, that is it enhanced the mean weight diameter, geometric mean diameter and aggregate content (%) of>0.25 mm aggregate fractions.OF and COF treatments increased the concentration of SOC, especially the aliphatic-C, aromatic-C and polysaccharide-C components of SOC, particularly in>0.25 mm aggregates.Organic fertilizer application significantly increased the content of free Fe(Fed), reactive Fe (Feo), and non-crystalline Fe in both bulk soil and aggregates.Furthermore, non-crystalline Fe showed a positive correlation with SOC content in both bulk soil and aggregates.Both non-crystalline Fe and SOC were significantly positively correlated with>2 mm mean weight diameter.Overall, we believe that the increase of SOC, aromatic-C, and non-crystal ine Fe concentrations in soil after the application of organic fertilizer is the reason for improving soil aggregate stability.

文摘Integrated perovskite-organic solar cells(IPOSCs) offer a promising hybrid approach that combines the advantages of perovskite and organic solar cells, enabling efficient photon absorption across a broad spectrum with a simplified architecture. However, challenges such as limited charge mobility in organic bulk heterojunction(BHJ) layers, and energy-level mismatch at the perovskite/BHJ interface still sustain. Recent advancements in non-fullerene acceptors(NFAs), interfacial engineering, and emerging materials have improved charge transfer/transport, and overall power conversion efficiency(PCE) of IPOSCs.This review explores key developments in IPOSCs, focusing on low-bandgap materials for near-infrared absorption, energy alignment optimization, and strategies to enhance photocurrent density and device performance. Future innovations in material selection and device architecture will be crucial for further improving the efficiency of IPOSCs, bringing them closer to practical application in next-generation photovoltaic technologies.

文摘Water-soluble organic matter(WSOM)significantly influences the transport of metals and organic contaminants in soils,yet the interaction specifics with antimony(Sb)remain largely unexplored.Antimony is of particular environmental concern due to its toxic properties and harmful effects on ecosystems and human health.Employing a three-step fractionation method with polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP),this study aimed to isolate and analyze humic acids(HA),PVP-non adsorbed fulvic acids(FAA),and PVP-adsorbed fulvic acids(FAB)from WSOM in soil spiked with Sb and incubated for 18 months.These fractions underwent chemical analysis for carbon(C),nitrogen(N),total organic carbon(TOC),and Sb,complemented by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopic characterization.The study revealed that HA wasmore aliphatic,with Sb predominantly associating with the fulvic acid(FA)fraction,accounting for 97%of Sb in extracts.Specifically,the FAA subfraction held substantial portions of total carbon(TC),total nitrogen(TN),total organic carbon(TOC),and Sb.Correlations between Sb concentrations and TN,TC,and TOC were significant.Extraction methods showed NaOH and Na_(4)P_(2)O_(7) outperformed HCl and deionised water in extracting TC,TN,and TOC,with higher Sb concentrations found in Na_(4)P_(2)O_(7) and NaOH extracts.This underscores the role of Fe/Al-SOM complexes in Sb soil availability.The results revealed that FAA subfraction accounted for 76%,64%and 94%of TN,TOC and Sb,respectively.Therefore,this research highlights the FAA fraction’s central role,predominantly comprising non-humic substances like amines,in the availability of C,N,and Sb in Sb-impacted soils.The findings offer insights for environmental management and remediation strategies.
